Chapter 1987
On the same day, Emily Flowers held a press conference and said that she would never acknowledge the baby in
Lina’s stomach as the Stephenson family’s future heir. She also openly doubted that the baby in Lina’s stomach was
not her son’s. At the same time, Emily Flowers stated that Lina was only a vain woman who thought she could get

After so many years, he was used to having his mother treat him like a pawn. They had never been close anyway.
Even now, how was he not Lina’s pawn? Even though she said nothing, he was willing to fight for her. If she was
going to use him one day, then… all she needed to do was ask him. He would be willing to do it.
